When a strand of hair enters the end of its telogen phase, which is also known as the rest phase, it falls out and the follicle begins growing a new hair in its place. As a result of your hair's life cycle, it is natural to lose between 50 and 100 hairs per day from your beard, scalp and other parts of your body. Telogen effluvium is a condition in which your hairs enter their telogen phase early. This causes your hair to be shed at a faster rate and can affect the thickness and fullness of your beard as well as the hair on your head. You will notice a gradual thinning across your entire beard and scalp due to this condition. It can have a number of causes, including infections, high fever, major surgeries or influenza. Chronic illnesses that can cause beard loss include thyroid disease and low protein or serum iron. This type of hair loss is temporary in most cases and your beard will gradually return after the contributing factor has been removed. You just need to improve your diet .You may take biotin supplements to prevent hair fall. Consult your dermatologist if the problem still persists.

beard loss is called Alopecia areata and is an autoimmune disease that causes hair to fall out in small, random patches. The hair loss usually affects the scalp, but it can also occur in other areas of the body. The exact cause of alopecia areata isn't known.
